When Fang Runzhi openly offers Su Yi a contract, Pei Jia warns him that there may be something else going on, but Su Yi still insists on seizing the opportunity to fulfill his dream.

Su Yi agrees to sign a contract and gradually falls under Fang Run Zhi's control, which Pei Jia tries to stop. During a late-night conversation, Su Yi reveals the secret he's been hiding, a brain tumor that is pressing on his optic nerve and could make him go blind at any time. He insists on acting not to become famous, but to be remembered when the world can still see him, which causes Pei Jia to have an emotional breakdown and finally admits that he loves Su Yi.

Su Yi officially signs the contract and attends the press conference with Pei Jia. The two support each other on stage, and their private relationship quickly heats up.
